This video is doing really well so I'm glad you all enjoy this series idea. We just wanted to see whether or not these viral youtube videos with clickbait titles are actually any good and while something tells me they can't all be good, this recipe shows that some of them are worth your time. Look forward to more of these my friends and HAPPY COOKING to you all.
I did half the honey, twice the soy sauce, and added ginger and fresh red hot chili peppers, then served with chives and fried onions. Hands down one of the best chicken breasts I've ever had. Trying it with Tempeh this week too!
Hey I was thinking pepper flakes to add but yours sounds amazing! Were your red onion fresh, pickled, or sautéed. I’m doing this today with jasmine rice😊 Thank you for sharing
Having made this myself when skeptical, I was fully expecting the "holy crap that's actually really good" moment you and you friend had. The recipe is stupid easy and comes out way better than it has any right to be, lol.
I cut down the butter and syrup a little bit but I've been making this recipe for a couple years. I eat it all the time. It's good for meal prep. I love it.
Sophie has the best recipes ever... I watch her all the time... The great thing about Sophie's recipes are that they are not complicated and they are easy to cook... When ever my family gets tired of the same old food I hit up Sophie's channel and get a new recipe or two...
I felt EXACTLY how you did about this going in. I have not tried it yet but upon hearing the ingredient list I thought how can this not be great. I'd probably serve it over rice with steamed broccoli to cut down on the thick and sweetness
This is gonna be a great series! I appreciate that you approached your rating honestly and didn't let the fact that it was basically a tik tok recipe sway you.
@@thatdudecancook Thanks Dude, I've been cooking chicken breasts this way for years, easy and perfect every time. Try honey instead of maple syrup, creates a better glaze. Let us know when the funeral service is for the fridge, I think he's done. 🍻
Second this comment. Gonna be a GREAT series and thank you for all you do sir. Your vids got me back in the kitchen and having fun once again! Wish I had a fridge to punish
@@Magnum3144 lol I know, right?? I lowkey wanna buy an old fridge at a secondhand store just to beat the shit out of it when I do a great job in the kitchen. Looks cathartic!
OK, I'm sold - definitely putting this in the dinner rotation for next week! ETA: We made it and it was freaking awesome. I also doubled the soy sauce and added a tablespoon of dijon mustard. Fan-freaking-tastic! Tender, juicy, little bit of crust and lots of nooks and crannies for that delicious sauce. This one is now in the regular rotation!
I do this on a regular basis. Sometimes instead of apple cider vinegar I use Balsamic vinegar and instead of syrup I use honey. I've cooked pork and beef the same way and it's all GOOD.
So I follow Sophi, her dishes are fantastic and I have made this very dish a few times my self. Totally worth the views. but here is the spin. As a single father of two in a high ranking job with a love for cooking, I am wiped out by the time I get home with my girls and only then do I have to start cooking, by the time were done, I have nearly no time with them before they have to go to bed. Sophi's recipies, if you look closly are all generally healthy and can be done in a very short time, and so thanks to her, I let my 7 year old use my Myabi and or kenshun, and she is able to make this dish compleatly by her self. It gets her interested in healthy cooking, makes her feel like a grown up master chef. the reward she gets from cooking and seeing the clean plates is a win win all round. I would give 10 out of 10 to this woman, just because her dishes are mostly easy for a younger audience to cook.
Thanks, Bro! We had fun making this one so it will be cool to keep it going and test some more of these viral youtube recipes, This one was great but I have a feeling that they aren't all winners if you know what I mean.
At first, I thought you were going to trash it. I'm really happy that you didn't and that you actually liked it and gave her credit. I'm looking forward to the rest of this series.
Sonny is fair and doesn’t have a competitive ego. I think this will be a great series, and for those things that aren’t so good he will recommend some changes. This is smart and fun times for foodies.
Yes, I agree....I have looked a few of the various "Rezepte/Recipes" on YT.... there are various sites and some of them are just plain repetitive.....same ingredients, some boringly so. Many are just a conveyor belt variation on a theme of those same staples. This particular one looks quite interesting though....and on Sonny's view...I WILL try it! Enjoy your kitchen!
Years ago, I was tired of having my chicken breasts take forever to cook in the thick parts while overcooking the thin parts, and I didn't want to try to flatten them, so I started cutting them like this. I got out of the habit of doing this, not sure why, but it's neat to see someone else do it. I also never thought of dredging them and making a thick sauce for them. What a great idea.
This is a great idea for a series. I hope you do this for a while. I'm usually skeptical of all viral recipes. They usually look good, but taste boring (not bad). Only exception was the viral baked feta/tomato pasta. That was a shocker.
I will have to try this recipe. But I have been cutting my chicken like this for quite some time. Usually I marinate it overnight in oil, lime juice, salt/pepper, and tarragon. Then toss it on the grill the next day. A nice bright and juicy chicken. This recipe looks good in a completely different direction, but just as simple.
I made this last night and followed it almost to a T and it was really good. The only thing I changed was I added 1/4 a cup of maple syrup, some red chili pepper flakes, but other than that it was awesome.
Just made this and it was great. My picky wife went back for seconds. I am always hesitant to try trendy meme recipes, but this technique is really good. The scoring helps the thick part of the chicken have more surface area and cook at the same rate as the thinner part which keeps it juicy. Pan sauce was great after adjustment to make it less sweet. Will def make it again.
Sophie is from Germany or from a German-speaking country - or rather she could have been, as I don't know it for a fact, rather I'm just guessing by the name of the channel, and people seem to have spotted several inconsistencies in her German. Essen rezepte (approximately EH-ssen reh-TSEH-pteh) means cooking recipes (literally "to eat recipes"). :)
I watched this video for the first time last night. When I woke up I made it... The only thing I can say is wow! This easy recipe exceeded my expectations. It may be the best chicken I ever tasted.... EVER! It was THAT good! Presentation is 10/10, taste is 9/10 and texture is 10/10. Only reason I gave the taste a '9' is it was slightly sweet for my taste but that can be easily adjusted. PS- I used a quality maple syrup instead of honey. Also, if you add the garlic too early, it will burn black. I added it at the end while making the sauce
I usually ignore those "This recipe is so good, everyone will lick their plate and ask for more" channels like a plague but this series won't hurt much. 112k view on the second day!! That's a huge number dude. Congrats!!🎉🎉
Her channel is awesome because it has no voice and no obnoxiousness like all the other RUclips channels out there including this one. It is just plain cooking for the sake of cooking - not about the personality of the person.
The accomplished chef in you comes out in wishing to tweak the recipe here and there...kudos to you for giving a this recipe such high marks after going in with such skepticism! Looks like this will be on the menu this weekend at my place. Thanks, Sonny!
I slightly reduced maple syrup (3 TBSP) & increased soy & vinegar (2TBSP each) as you suggested after tasting. we enjoyed this and will make it again, i may tweek it a bit. liked that it was quick & easy. Thanks Dude.
I made this recipe a couple days ago and we LOVED it! I too was sure the chicken would be dry. But no! Nice to see your confirmation👍 My mods were more soy sauce and more vinegar. Plus, after 3 mins on each side, I set the chicken aside while I did the sauce, then added them back in, basting and turning while the sauce thickened up. I served it with another YT recipe, buttery garlic rice. Yum! 😋
I cooked Sophia's version at the request of my family. It got that incredulous, overwhelmed- with-flavor reaction from everyone! I'm a big fan of your videos.
90% of Sophie's videos say that she makes them or could make them every day or a few times a week. It draws eyeballs and clicks. Glad to know that they are indeed delicious. Thank you. Gotta try it now.
As a former line cook at a few good restaurants in NYC, I used to think all these viral tiktok recipes were absolute trash. The one that made me change my mind was the baked feta pasta. That one was actually good.
Thanks for your video! My grandmother made this when I was young, She put garlic and ginger, even a little soy and honey with orange zest in there.. cross cut the chicken the same way. Awww.. the memories. She's a WW2 survivor from Germany, RIP Awesome Grandma! I didnt realize the lady who hosts Essenrezepte is German! RAD! I have to make this for my friends now. I would prefer to do this with Sunflower high oleic oil.
This series has everything it needs to be amazing. Too many other series like this are done by people who can't cook or just don't prepare properly, so half the video is "I didn't have any of x so I'm just going to use x" and they don't have the know-how to realize it will COMPLETELY change the dish! So many possibly good recipes are ruined by people just being ignorant for content. You should be able to do all of these recipes, so we can TRUST if they're good or not!
I follow Sophia’s channel and it has helped me cook easy dinners with cheap ingredients and lots of veggies. It might not be her aim, but it works. I like it a lot, even though there are hundreds of channels like hers with similar recipes.
Pink Himalayan salt is mined from ancient sea beds in the Himalayan region, and some studies have found that it may contain trace amounts of heavy metals like lead and arsenic. While these levels are generally considered to be safe for human consumption, people who consume large amounts of Pink Himalayan salt regularly may be at risk of long-term heavy metal exposure.
Agree on the pink salt. Always sea salt for me, personally. Quite happy that Vancouver Island Sea Salt is produced here. One of my fave salts. Only changes I'd have made, would be brining the breasts 1st. Great way to infuse flavour and add some moisture. I'd have made it with skin on boneless thighs. No need to brine, but a rub left on for a few hours would add some depth (Gochugaru, smoked paprika, mustard powder and granulated garlic. You could also use these flavours in a brine).
It doesn‘t do anything to prevent the butter from browning, it just waters down the amount of butter so when it browns you notice the browning flavor less
@@geekmac9349 My full comment states that it prevents the butter from browning “so easily”. That is because the olive oil does increase the smoke point of the butter. On another note, to agree with you it does dilute the flavor of the browned butter. Of course the butter will still brown. Perhaps I should have stated that it doesn’t brown as “quickly” in lieu of “so easily”.
This is interesting. Butter browns around 300°F, and EVOO smokes around 350°F (Light Olive Oil is around 470°F). I wonder why the addition of olive oil would slow the Maillard reaction of the butter solids.
@@johnafleenor2986 Butter browns because after boiling off the water content the milk solids toast in the butter fat. By adding olive oil you only add more fat for the solids to toast in. The solids will toast at the same temperature either way, the smoke point of the oil surrounding them has nothing to do with it
I've been following Sophie for a while now. Her food videos are awesome, and looks delicious. Most of her meals are paired with potatoes. She must own a potato farm or something
You mean Rosemary Potatoes? There's hardly a week goes by without someone on "Das Perfekte Dinner" (Come Dine with Me) cooking these with Bohnen in Speckmantel (Green beans wrapped in bacon) and doing as if they created something fantastic.
This dish is amazing. I didnt get the recipe off here, but i hv been making this for a couple years. I used scallions, not chives, and at the first time i used brown sugar not honey or syrup as my honey had gone bad, but its great either way. One of my favorite stove top chicken recipes. I actually happened upon it trying to recreate a dish i had in a restaurant. Try it if u love chicken!!!
My mum always makes maple syrup soy sauce wings I haven't tried it with apple cider but I squeezed a lemon the other day and had lemon juice on my fingers when I ate a wing and it tasted amazing ... What do you guys think about replacing the cider vinegar with fresh lemon juice?
I've done that for years. Finally got an instant read thermometer. I use it religiously. For chicken breasts I stop cooking at 155. carry over heat gets it easily to the safe zone it it's quite tender and juicy. Hope this helps!
Ive made some minor change to this recipe in terms of soy sauce/syrup/vinegar levels but other than that I keep it the same. It's an absolute staple in my household. Once a week, Umami Sticky Chicken, cannot get enough of the stuff. Really appreciate the channel and series for having an honest go at these types of recipes and being honest when they're fucking amazing. Keep up the good work so I can keep telling folks that I can cook too!
Butter has such a low burn temp so I always add olive oil to my butter to increase the burn temperature. You can cook with butter flavour at a way higher temperature when olive oil is added.
Half the maple syrup, the soy sauce was the extra dark, black garlic, apple cider vinegar, dipped my chicken in my preseasoned flour I keep in the freezer, fried in butter and olive oil. And pepper. Served with steamed spinach (that I cooked in the same pan from the chicken added a splash of water and some lime juice) and a whole avocado. A chunk of french bread...Yummy!
What is this, RUclips video title didn’t lie? I REALLY cook this recipe very often now and it’s REALLY very simple and quick. For me, instead of flour, I use a mixture of flour and corn starch. Less honey and equal parts of soy and vinegar
sprinkle lemon juice on top when finished or serve with some lemon quarters on the side. I love adding lemon juice to almost everything chicken that I make.
Tried this yesterday and it was amazing, absolute hit with all my friends. Thanks for sharing! Did use a bit less honey and a bit more soy sauce on mine than the original recipe
I was as skeptical as you were, and I love that you have integrity. Oh, and "EssenRecipes" in means "Recipes To Eat", at least literally. I am not German.
My family and I love this dish however, I change it up a little each time depending on what's on hand. Ginger? lemongrass? Aleppo pepper? Love serving this over Jasmine rice or sticky Korean rice to sop up the sauce. I make it at least once a month.
I avoid any of the videos that say something to the effect "It's so good I cook it almost every day". The reason? It just seems like click bait - They all have multiple videos that state the same thing. How many different meals do you cook every day? Looking forward to this series.
I’ve followed you for years, and made this after seeing the original recipe…you’ve validated my thoughts! Thanks for all you’ve done to help hone my cooking skills!
Since her recipes don't have titles, and I followed your suggestion to reduce the honey and increase the soy sauce, I have saved this recipe as "Sophie's Chicken, Sonny-Side Up". Subscribed for the crazy eyes ("Don't Look at Me') while squeezing the potatoes in your review of her other recipe (the Frozen Chicken Breast thing).
Just cooked this recipe and wifey approves. I wouldn't go as far as saying it deserved 24M views on RUclips but it was tasty and something different to the usual meals. Nice!
Thanks for sharing this recipe! Just made it for my wife and I and it turned out great! Added some chili oil at the end to cook the garlic and make the glaze.
"Essen Rezepte" is German which is literally "eating recipes." Probably means more like "tasting recipes." I'm not fluent, so take that with a grain of pink sea salt.
This video is doing really well so I'm glad you all enjoy this series idea. We just wanted to see whether or not these viral youtube videos with clickbait titles are actually any good and while something tells me they can't all be good, this recipe shows that some of them are worth your time.

Those videos are pretty soulless, so it's fun to watch with a bit of personality and fridge-bashing.
might be a nice gesture to reference the original video link, no shade, much love
It wasn't too dry, Sonny? I had the same thought that you did about the scoring.
Is the 50 states series squashed?
I did half the honey, twice the soy sauce, and added ginger and fresh red hot chili peppers, then served with chives and fried onions. Hands down one of the best chicken breasts I've ever had. Trying it with Tempeh this week too!

Unfortunately, there is no safe level of lead. It accumulates in the body and slowly kills your cells' ability to use oxygen.

This is interesting. Butter browns around 300°F, and EVOO smokes around 350°F (Light Olive Oil is around 470°F).
I wonder why the addition of olive oil would slow the Maillard reaction of the butter solids.
@@james.randorff The oil isn’t part of the maillard reaction. However, it can affect the temp and moisture content when it occurs.
@@johnafleenor2986 Butter browns because after boiling off the water content the milk solids toast in the butter fat. By adding olive oil you only add more fat for the solids to toast in. The solids will toast at the same temperature either way, the smoke point of the oil surrounding them has nothing to do with it
I just made this for the first time for dinner! Thanks for the recipe, my family loved it!
Dude I don’t even care about the chicken recipe, that was the most epic fridge scene ever!
I would love to do this to my fridge also. Kitchenaid makes crappy (and overpriced) refrigerators, but the matching stove and dishwasher we have are 👌
I just made this tonight for the 1st time. It was much easier a quicker than I thought it would be and it tasted amazing.
Sophia literally uses nearly the same title on everything xD
The fridge is classic 💪 No1 online can mess wit it 👍
Everything she posts she says is so good she cooks it everyday.
I made this a couple times and I used brown sugar instead of syrup. Worked great and my kids loved it.
I've been following Sophie for a while now. Her food videos are awesome, and looks delicious. Most of her meals are paired with potatoes. She must own a potato farm or something
Germans love potato. Pretty much an unoffical national treasure for them.
@@zoe..d Not only Germans
You mean Rosemary Potatoes? There's hardly a week goes by without someone on "Das Perfekte Dinner" (Come Dine with Me) cooking these with Bohnen in Speckmantel (Green beans wrapped in bacon) and doing as if they created something fantastic.
Это действительно отличный рецепт, готовлю так уже несколько лет.
This is a really great recipe, I've been making it this way for several years now.
I'm making this tonight for the family. Dad points are going to hit 100!
How did it go?!
@@AK-jt7kh I cooked some saffron rice and steamed broccoli with it and it was a family hit.
I make this once a week with honey, soy sauce and rice vinegar. My friends and family members too!!! Easy and delicious!!❤❤
I have seen her videos and there are many she cooks everyday. Not sure his she manages to make so many everyday. Maybe she owns a restaurant.
+100000 on the sentiment
It’s called clickbait.
I can't stand those titles.
This dish is amazing. I didnt get the recipe off here, but i hv been making this for a couple years. I used scallions, not chives, and at the first time i used brown sugar not honey or syrup as my honey had gone bad, but its great either way. One of my favorite stove top chicken recipes. I actually happened upon it trying to recreate a dish i had in a restaurant. Try it if u love chicken!!!
I am diabetic and was able to adjust this recipe to be low carb. Tasted great. I will be making it a lot.
My mum always makes maple syrup soy sauce wings I haven't tried it with apple cider but I squeezed a lemon the other day and had lemon juice on my fingers when I ate a wing and it tasted amazing ... What do you guys think about replacing the cider vinegar with fresh lemon juice?
What annoys me about those videos, EVERY SINGLE ONE says "I cook this every day" ... HOW MANY ARMIES ARE THEY FEEDING?
Making this for dinner this week with some rice and broccoli! Easy, fast and tasty looking- perfect for busy weeknight!.
WHAT A GREAT VIDEO!
You tasting.. then cutting straight to you giving that fridge the “ what for”
Was gold. Thank you
Bro. You just hit 2 million subs like 5 minutes ago. Congrats man!
Made this the other day. As I tend to do, I overcooked the chicken (I never seem to get it right) but it was still very good. I will be trying again.
I've done that for years. Finally got an instant read thermometer. I use it religiously. For chicken breasts I stop cooking at 155. carry over heat gets it easily to the safe zone it it's quite tender and juicy. Hope this helps!
Ive made some minor change to this recipe in terms of soy sauce/syrup/vinegar levels but other than that I keep it the same. It's an absolute staple in my household. Once a week, Umami Sticky Chicken, cannot get enough of the stuff. Really appreciate the channel and series for having an honest go at these types of recipes and being honest when they're fucking amazing. Keep up the good work so I can keep telling folks that I can cook too!
Butter has such a low burn temp so I always add olive oil to my butter to increase the burn temperature. You can cook with butter flavour at a way higher temperature when olive oil is added.
That's not true, it doesn't increase it in the slightest.
I talked the wife into trying this one day, we have made it several times since. So delicious and reheats wonderfully
Half the maple syrup, the soy sauce was the extra dark, black garlic, apple cider vinegar, dipped my chicken in my preseasoned flour I keep in the freezer, fried in butter and olive oil. And pepper. Served with steamed spinach (that I cooked in the same pan from the chicken added a splash of water and some lime juice) and a whole avocado. A chunk of french bread...Yummy!
What is this, RUclips video title didn’t lie? I REALLY cook this recipe very often now and it’s REALLY very simple and quick. For me, instead of flour, I use a mixture of flour and corn starch. Less honey and equal parts of soy and vinegar
sprinkle lemon juice on top when finished or serve with some lemon quarters on the side. I love adding lemon juice to almost everything chicken that I make.
That pattern is great for BBQ chicken. Gives you so much more of the crispy bits!
Cooked today. Really good, thank you. Now beat the fridge.
Your poor neighbor, lol. Unwittingly sees you make the death blow to your fridge with no context makes me giggle out loud 😂😂😂
Tried this yesterday and it was amazing, absolute hit with all my friends. Thanks for sharing! Did use a bit less honey and a bit more soy sauce on mine than the original recipe
I was as skeptical as you were, and I love that you have integrity. Oh, and "EssenRecipes" in means "Recipes To Eat", at least literally. I am not German.
I was looking for a good chicken recipe to copy/paste to our stove top. I think we found it with this video! Praise the Lord!!!!
I wonder if Derick and his mom rehearse these, the acting is so natural that it seems real
I love dry chicken
My family and I love this dish however, I change it up a little each time depending on what's on hand. Ginger? lemongrass? Aleppo pepper? Love serving this over Jasmine rice or sticky Korean rice to sop up the sauce. I make it at least once a month.
Deglace with white white cream and Dijon mustard for next level
low carb'd it by skipping the flour and subbing the syrup for a two tbsp sugar-free BBQ sauce. Was still amazing.
The cut straight to the fridge was hilarious! Glad I've found you
I make this very often. I love it. Easy delicious. Never dry. I also add ginger want to try some green peps.
I've made it. Man this one really does deserve the 14 million views!
I avoid any of the videos that say something to the effect "It's so good I cook it almost every day". The reason? It just seems like click bait - They all have multiple videos that state the same thing. How many different meals do you cook every day? Looking forward to this series.
I’ve followed you for years, and made this after seeing the original recipe…you’ve validated my thoughts!
Thanks for all you’ve done to help hone my cooking skills!
Since her recipes don't have titles, and I followed your suggestion to reduce the honey and increase the soy sauce, I have saved this recipe as "Sophie's Chicken, Sonny-Side Up". Subscribed for the crazy eyes ("Don't Look at Me') while squeezing the potatoes in your review of her other recipe (the Frozen Chicken Breast thing).
I literally just made this from the video then opened RUclips to watch something while it eat and this was recommended 😂😂
I am already loving this new series! I was so hoping that someone would try out all of the highest food likes videos.
I added extra soy sauce and apple cider vinegar and did 1/4 cup of syrup and it turned out so good.
Just cooked this recipe and wifey approves. I wouldn't go as far as saying it deserved 24M views on RUclips but it was tasty and something different to the usual meals. Nice!
Thanks for sharing this recipe! Just made it for my wife and I and it turned out great! Added some chili oil at the end to cook the garlic and make the glaze.
"Essen Rezepte" is German which is literally "eating recipes." Probably means more like "tasting recipes." I'm not fluent, so take that with a grain of pink sea salt.
